    Our Vision & Values

A Knowledgeable Cable Assembly & Electrical Systems Partner

AQ Wiring Systems Rockford’s unique engineering-driven approach to cable assembly and wiring harness design and manufacturing delivers a cost-effective, high-quality solution to your cable assembly needs. AQ Wiring Systems Rockford is the UK’s largest independent provider of wiring, interconnect & system solutions for the aerospace, defence and industrial markets.

We offer a simplified, competitive and reactive supply chain with excellence, meeting your offset requirements and mitigating your risk: Designing high-performance, environmentally sealed, next-generation, high-speed, flexible cabling and system-level electrical equipment with engineering and production capacity for rapid prototypes and low to medium volume orders, delivered with on-site global engineering support.

Since 1978, we have successfully addressed the high-reliability requirements of the major Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in the defence and aerospace sectors. Our broad cable assembly capability and competitiveness, combined with a reactive attitude to service means Rockford has become a major part of many important supply chains. We are a specialist manufacturer and distributor of cable assemblies, harnesses, looms, box builds, control panels and sub-assemblies.

“We have grown from being a small family firm in 1978 to become the UK’s largest independent provider of wiring, interconnect and system solutions for the aerospace, defence and industrial markets.” — Peter Lion, Managing Director

We have the capabilities, technologies, products, and knowledge to design, manufacture, test, and deliver system-level electrical equipment that ranges from simple wiring harnesses and electro-mechanical sub-assemblies, and on to complete systems.

Beginning as a business that was primarily a cable assembly and wiring harness manufacturer, Rockford has evolved to offer a broad spectrum of products, including wiring looms, interconnect components distribution, kitting services, system-level electricals, electro-mechanical systems and other bespoke complex electrical projects. Our electrical cable assemblies can include hermetically sealed wire harness design (waterproof connectors to ip68), over-braided harnesses, over-moulded connectors, and high-speed USB/ethernet.
